That was very informative. Thank you.

But I guess I really am an old fogey, traditional Catholic. All the 'modern' speak in the article ... it's very foreign to me. I find it difficult to read. And I don't hear much 'spirituality' in it.

... Or maybe it's just that I've read too many Tan books. lol

I wonder how much of that kind of talk the pope actually understands. (He's kind of elderly, too. lol)
Do you think he talks like that in conversations with people?

The only thing I have picked up from him is that he is very political and rarely gives a straight answer. We just need to pray for this situation.
